Donald Trump's attack on Judge Gonzalo Curiel is despicable.

Where's the love for Puerto Rico?
Mexico has the numbers, while Cuba has the mystique. They both have the simpatico from the President of the United States too. Meanwhile, Puerto Rico is sinking and shrinking and the love isn't there.

ENDA would allow a Catholic hospital or school to fire a lesbian nurse or janitor or cafeteria cashier simply on the basis of her sexual orientation. That is a much broader exemption than allowed for any other group under the 1964 Civil Rights Act. And it's abhorrent.Mon, 07 Jul 2014 14:54:54 -0400https://www.huffpost.com/entry/have-gay-groups-set-their_b_5564200https://www.huffpost.com/entry/have-gay-groups-set-their_b_5564200#commentsImmigration Activists Trade Strategy for Emotionhttps://www.huffpost.com/entry/immigration-activists-tra_b_4915310

Cuccinell's anti-science extremism can only be compared to his passion to protect the fossil fuel industry and other polluters. Just consider that, according to the NCLR/Sierra Club survey, for 83 percent of Latinos, coal plants and oil refineries "are a thing of the past."
